An investigation discovered that LG smart TVs contain features that allow mapping of nearby phones and electronic devices, even when they are not connected to the Wi-Fi network.
The study revealed that these televisions continue to capture audio through the built-in microphone even when the screen is turned off, functioning as surveillance devices without the users' knowledge.
The South Korean brand LG is at the center of this controversy after its Smart TVs were identified as potential covert surveillance tools.
The findings raise significant concerns about consumer privacy and the functioning of these electronic devices in people's daily lives.
